00:02I grew up from a generation where they said that we could have it all and now I get asked
00:07how do
00:08you balance your your life as a mother and and a career woman and the truth is nobody showed us
00:15how to do it because we were told we could have it all and now we're just realizing it's impossible
00:19because there's only one of us and we're expected to spread ourselves so thinly and divide ourselves
00:24up into 20 30 pieces that's impossible it's an impossible load and I think it's just important
00:30to acknowledge that actually we got it wrong we can't have it all because the only thing that gives
00:35is us and our sanity and our mental physical well-being so actually it is worth going back
00:43to I suppose grassroots of community and looking for what that village looks like and asking for
00:47help and actually realizing what is without feeling that you don't have that capability
00:53about you but just to not feel that you've failed if it's just too heavy a workload it's impossible
01:00to do everything at optimum speed all of the time and it's okay to ask for help in fact I
01:08recommend it
